The sourcemeter was designed as a homemade currentvoltage iv tester to measure the iv characteristics of a. Now, when you open your serial monitor in the arduino ide by clicking on. The current through the dut is converted to a voltage by dropping it across a. Download scientific diagram sensor circuit for measuring voltage drop across the sensors using the arduino microcontroller board. Download the code for voltage sensor module for arduino. Build your own sourcemeter mit photovoltaic research laboratory. How to build an arduino energy monitor measuring mains current. All you need is an arduino, the resistor you want to measure, and another. I made a quick start guide for this tutorial that you can download and go back. My problem is while mosfet is off the battery voltage that arduino reads is batterys 100% voltage e. The voltage drop across r2 is called vout, thats the divided voltage of our circuit. The sourcemeter uses an opensource arduino microprocessor and the user. Voltage sensor for arduino with code and formula to measure any. Measuring voltage with arduino starting electronics.
Basically, the shunt voltage drop will be too small to read directly into arduino, so you need to amplify it to get descent resolution. You can then calculate the voltage drop across the resistor by subtracting the lower analog input. To measure the voltage drop i used the shunt connected in a lowside way, i. Sensor circuit for measuring voltage drop across the sensors using. The device is programmed using the arduino integrated development enviroment ide.
This voltage is the analog voltage that youre reading as an input. It is recommended that you should not go below 7v to allow for the voltage drop across the power regulator. So unless the resistor you want to measure across has one end wired to its circuit ground common. You will learn how to measure 25v dc but trick is shown so you can measure. The voltage range measured is increased using a voltage divider resistor network. This video will help you in using arduino uno to measure voltage of battery. I measure the voltage drop across a resistor and them multiply it by the value of the resistor to work out amperage. With a simple knowledge of arduino and voltage divider circuit, we.
